What was Chamberlain referring to and why do you suppose many felt the need to keep the peace at any cost?

Answer: "I believe peace is for our time."

Explanation:

With this sentence, Chamberlain sought to appease his citizens from the windows of his residence. After meeting with Hitler, attended by diplomatic representatives of France and Italy, the prime minister was quite optimistic. However, it soon turned out he was wrong because German planes would hover over British skies. Some historians think that Chamberlain was gullible concerning Hitler's wills. On the other hand, Churchill was continually warning of the threat from Germany. The preceding sentence can be seen as a wish of the British Prime Minister, but the reality turned out to be different. After Churchill's doubts became clear, Chamberlain resigned, and Winston Churchill led the country during the war.
